anglia4 Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 I'm not going to make it. Sprog #2 will be near due, run out of annual leave, and planning a south island trip for when the new bubba arrives. Maybe next year. 2 1 Quote

Is there a South Island equivalent of China Palace that we can terrorize during a dinner session? I dont really know what dining offers Blenheim/Nelson have tbh. I like eating food in places that sell beer in jugs tbh. Or just some beige food with some cheap beer from the supermarket works fine too. 2 Quote
Willdat? Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 Nelson will depend on where we stay... Not a lot of places left that serve jugs to be honest.... 1 Quote
anglia4 Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 Pretty sure the Stoke brewery has jugs and decent food. Unlikely to have pink pussies and PG's though. Quote
CaMpylobacter Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 @Chunky_t will be living in renwick by then so we can just all roll up half tanked to his place 1 Quote

RUNAMUCK Posted December 2, 2020 Author Posted December 2, 2020 I stayed at a motel within walking distance of the springlands tavern for the Onamalutu valley fire back in 2013. They had pub nosh, and beer in jugs. 1 Quote

I'll have to find the shadiest chinese place in town, I'm pretty geographically challenged in the marlborough region though It def needs to have pink pussy, top gun, and the sledgehammer on the cocktail menu 2 Quote
I'm new here Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 New here, new to bikes, had a friend mentioned this ride to me and I'm keen. Would make a great maiden voyage for the ct110 2 1 Quote
Chunky_t Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 In further developments, they’ve changed the speed limit from Blenhiem all the way to Nelson (I think) to 80km/h which makes the open road stretch to pelorus better for small cc bikes 4 1 Quote
RUNAMUCK Posted December 18, 2020 Author Posted December 18, 2020 People bin crying about it on the book. Quote
datlow Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Still keen, but work may say otherwise Anyone from the NI likely to have a spare seat/room for a bike Quote

xsinclairx Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Apparently most roads aren’t engineered for the 100kp/h open road limit so they’re doing that across the country. Sure to upset a few. Quote
RUNAMUCK Posted December 18, 2020 Author Posted December 18, 2020 Cheaper to change the signs, than to upgrade the network. Some years ago a govt passed a bill allowing them to siphon petrol tax off to waste on other shit. If they'd never done that, we'd be sweet. Quote

kicker Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Anyone know know where and how long that old bypassed bit of SH6 is? Quote
Chunky_t Posted December 19, 2020 Posted December 19, 2020 And another thought - we should ride the queen charlotte road on the way to pelorus before the mangatapu track, could do Blenhiem>picton (bit of 100km/h but not all the way) then do Picton>havelock via the queen charlotte. 2 Quote
